hollywood is shooting for idiocracy
For my sister's birthday we went to see top gun, the new one, today.

Basically, hollywood is trying to make idiocracy level stupidity be worshiped and cool.

They're trying to put out movies so stupid, it's treason. They're trying to make us think on the level of the people in idiocracy the movie. Where everyone watches someone's naked ass fart for 1.5 hours and it's the biggest movie in the country and everyone loves it.

It's just such worship of dysfunctionality. They have all this high quality beautiful awesome music, and whatever technology that forces you to feel in awe and wonder, about, lunacy.

tom cruse blows up the 300 million dollar experimental scram jet, by pushing it to the limit beyond what is safe, and does it enough to keep the program alive, and then won't listen to his sensors and pushes it more and more till the plane blows up. Then the movie glorifies him for being so stupid he blows up the jet. he's made to be this rejected cornerstone that only does all things excellently, including be so stupid he blows up the 300 million dollar jet by not listening to his sensors, so that god and the angels put him in charge of the most sensitive strike on I think it was iran's nuclear program, though he doesn't obey admirals, and they all hate him. ANd..... he 'should have been a 2 star general by now and your a captain' and to idiocracy style rub it in his old buddy from the last movie whom he rubbed the wrong way and didn't believe in him is now the 'commander of the pacific fleet'. The person out of all the navy that tom cruise rubbed the wrong way is the commander of the pacific fleet, a mid level fighter pilot 30 years ago becomes the supreme commander when tom cruise was the best fighter pilot and should be a 2 star general and is a captain.

Just on and on and on and on making out insubordination, on top of that stupid insubordination, to be the new christ figure.

Re: hollywood is shooting for idiocracy
I think it's more along the lines of idiocracy mixed with black mirror but yeah. does seem to be a direction. bizarre.

Most of the movies I literally have zero desire to even bother with the theatre anymore let alone watch at all. it's like it's been degraded or something. or people have been dumbed down to the point where what is entertaining to them is not to the rest?

Amazing that people still spend money on garbage movies. I used to be into piracy 15 years ago but lost interest in pirating them and watching them for free, much less pay a dime for the garbage.

Re: hollywood is shooting for idiocracy
I wanted to add, why not drop a nuclear tipped bunker buster bomb from a SR71 at 70,000 ft instead of the crazy BS maneuvering with a jet? Total idiocy. Anyone with half a brain would realize there is no way a mission like this would ever be attempted. Oh, I forgot, movie had to last 1 1/2 hrs so instead of dropping a bunker buster from 70K ft, lets show how cool a 55 yr old Capt can fly a plane.

Totally agree, OP.

ASS won the Oscar for best picture in 2505.

TG2 - More Maverik-er is up for 6 (Yes SIX) academy Awards. I wouldn't put this movie in the top five Tom Cruise movies, let alone everything else out there.

They refused to release during the quarantine, they refused to release online. Postponed the release for at least 18 months in doing so. This is an "Atta-boy" for getting people back in the theaters and keeping the old school movie business relevent.

Classic Lone Rebel/buddies on the road/America wins (but we don't know who lost because we don't want to hurt anyone's feelings)/Guy gets girl 80's format pic.

Theater Owners sold more than one batch of Popcorn in a weekend.

The other two contenders are Encinoman as a teacher - emotional sucker punch daddy issue chick flick, and I don't what number, maybe the 300th Elvis Biopic.

Ya know, the original REALLY has not aged that well. I re-watched part of it. They all sound like they were huffing helium between shots. MacGillis' sex appeal was WAY oversold especially with all the ambiguous whatever-you-call-the-volleyball-game scene was about.

It also was not up for an Oscar, nor was it ever intended to be in contention, but the soundtrack did pretty well and it made BANK. Also a GREAT recruiting effort 4 years before the Gulf War.
